Matthew 15
1 Then there came to Jesus a party of Pharisees and Scribes from Jerusalem, who inquired,
τοτε προσερχονται τω ιησου οι απο ιεροσολυμων γραμματεις και φαρισαιοι λεγοντες
2 "Why do your disciples transgress the tradition of the Elders by not washing their hands before meals?"
δια τι οι μαθηται σου παραβαινουσιν την παραδοσιν των πρεσβυτερων ου γαρ νιπτονται τας χειρας αυτων οταν αρτον εσθιωσιν
3 "Why do you, too," He retorted, "transgress God's commands for the sake of your tradition?
ο δε αποκριθεις ειπεν αυτοις δια τι και υμεις παραβαινετε την εντολην του θεου δια την παραδοσιν υμων
4 For God said, 'Honour thy father and thy mother'; and 'Let him who reviles father or mother be certainly put to death';
ο γαρ θεος ενετειλατο λεγων τιμα τον πατερα σου και την μητερα και ο κακολογων πατερα η μητερα θανατω τελευτατω
5 but you--this is what you say: 'If a man says to his father or mother, That is consecrated, whatever it is, which otherwise you should have received from me--
υμεις δε λεγετε ος αν ειπη τω πατρι η τη μητρι δωρον ο εαν εξ εμου ωφεληθης και ου μη τιμηση τον πατερα αυτου η την μητερα αυτου
6 he shall be absolved from honouring his father'; and so you have abrogated God's Word for the sake of your tradition.
και ηκυρωσατε την εντολην του θεου δια την παραδοσιν υμων
7 Hypocrites! well did Isaiah prophesy of you,
υποκριται καλως προεφητευσεν περι υμων ησαιας λεγων
8 "'This is a People who honour Me with their lips, while their heart is far away from Me;
εγγιζει μοι ο λαος ουτος τω στοματι αυτων και τοις χειλεσιν με τιμα η δε καρδια αυτων πορρω απεχει απ εμου
9 but it is in vain they worship Me, while they lay down precepts which are mere human rules.'"
ματην δε σεβονται με διδασκοντες διδασκαλιας ενταλματα ανθρωπων
10 Then, when He had called the people to Him, Jesus said, "Hear and understand.
και προσκαλεσαμενος τον οχλον ειπεν αυτοις ακουετε και συνιετε
11 It is not what goes into a man's mouth that defiles him; but it is what comes out of his mouth--that defiles a man."
ου το εισερχομενον εις το στομα κοινοι τον ανθρωπον αλλα το εκπορευομενον εκ του στοματος τουτο κοινοι τον ανθρωπον
12 Then His disciples came and said to Him, "Do you know that the Pharisees were greatly shocked when they heard those words?"
τοτε προσελθοντες οι μαθηται αυτου ειπον αυτω οιδας οτι οι φαρισαιοι ακουσαντες τον λογον εσκανδαλισθησαν
13 "Every plant," He replied, "which my Heavenly Father has not planted will be rooted up.
ο δε αποκριθεις ειπεν πασα φυτεια ην ουκ εφυτευσεν ο πατηρ μου ο ουρανιος εκριζωθησεται
14 Leave them alone. They are blind guides of the blind; and if a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into some pit."
αφετε αυτους οδηγοι εισιν τυφλοι τυφλων τυφλος δε τυφλον εαν οδηγη αμφοτεροι εις βοθυνον πεσουνται
15 "Explain to us this figurative language," said Peter.
αποκριθεις δε ο πετρος ειπεν αυτω φρασον ημιν την παραβολην ταυτην
16 "Are even you," He answered, "still without intellingence?
ο δε ιησους ειπεν ακμην και υμεις ασυνετοι εστε
17 Do you not understand that whatever enters the mouth passes into the stomach and is afterwards ejected from the body?
ουπω νοειτε οτι παν το εισπορευομενον εις το στομα εις την κοιλιαν χωρει και εις αφεδρωνα εκβαλλεται
18 But the things that come out of the mouth proceed from the heart, and it is these that defile the man.
τα δε εκπορευομενα εκ του στοματος εκ της καρδιας εξερχεται κακεινα κοινοι τον ανθρωπον
19 For out of the heart proceed wicked thoughts, murder, adultery, fornication, theft, perjury, impiety of speech.
εκ γαρ της καρδιας εξερχονται διαλογισμοι πονηροι φονοι μοιχειαι πορνειαι κλοπαι ψευδομαρτυριαι βλασφημιαι
20 These are the things which defile the man; but eating with unwashed hands does not defile."
ταυτα εστιν τα κοινουντα τον ανθρωπον το δε ανιπτοις χερσιν φαγειν ου κοινοι τον ανθρωπον
21 Leaving that place, Jesus withdrew into the vicinity of Tyre and Sidon.
και εξελθων εκειθεν ο ιησους ανεχωρησεν εις τα μερη τυρου και σιδωνος
22 Here a Canaanitish woman of the district came out and persistently cried out, "Sir, Son of David, pity me; my daughter is cruelly harassed by a demon."
και ιδου γυνη χαναναια απο των οριων εκεινων εξελθουσα εκραυγασεν αυτω λεγουσα ελεησον με κυριε υιε δαβιδ η θυγατηρ μου κακως δαιμονιζεται
23 But He answered her not a word. Then the disciples interposed, and begged Him, saying, "Send her away because she keeps crying behind us."
ο δε ουκ απεκριθη αυτη λογον και προσελθοντες οι μαθηται αυτου ηρωτων αυτον λεγοντες απολυσον αυτην οτι κραζει οπισθεν ημων
24 "I have only been sent to the lost sheep of the house of Israel," He replied.
ο δε αποκριθεις ειπεν ουκ απεσταλην ει μη εις τα προβατα τα απολωλοτα οικου ισραηλ
25 Then she came and threw herself at His feet and entreated Him. "O Sir, help me," she said.
η δε ελθουσα προσεκυνει αυτω λεγουσα κυριε βοηθει μοι
26 "It is not right," He said, "to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs."
ο δε αποκριθεις ειπεν ουκ εστιν καλον λαβειν τον αρτον των τεκνων και βαλειν τοις κυναριοις
27 "Be it so, Sir," she said, "for even the dogs eat the scraps which fall from their masters' tables."
η δε ειπεν ναι κυριε και γαρ τα κυναρια εσθιει απο των ψιχιων των πιπτοντων απο της τραπεζης των κυριων αυτων
28 "O woman," replied Jesus, "great is your faith: be it done to you as you desire." And from that moment her daughter was restored to health.
τοτε αποκριθεις ο ιησους ειπεν αυτη ω γυναι μεγαλη σου η πιστις γενηθητω σοι ως θελεις και ιαθη η θυγατηρ αυτης απο της ωρας εκεινης
29 Again, moving thence, Jesus went along by the Lake of Galilee; and ascending the hill, He sat down there.
και μεταβας εκειθεν ο ιησους ηλθεν παρα την θαλασσαν της γαλιλαιας και αναβας εις το ορος εκαθητο εκει
30 Soon great crowds came to Him, bringing with them those who were crippled in feet or hands, blind or dumb, and many besides, and they hastened to lay them at His feet. And He cured them,
και προσηλθον αυτω οχλοι πολλοι εχοντες μεθ εαυτων χωλους τυφλους κωφους κυλλους και ετερους πολλους και ερριψαν αυτους παρα τους ποδας του ιησου και εθεραπευσεν αυτους
31 so that the people were amazed to see the dumb speaking, the maimed with their hands perfect, the lame walking, and the blind seeing; and they gave the glory to the God of Israel.
ωστε τους οχλους θαυμασαι βλεποντας κωφους λαλουντας κυλλους υγιεις χωλους περιπατουντας και τυφλους βλεποντας και εδοξασαν τον θεον ισραηλ
32 But Jesus called His disciples to Him and said, "My heart yearns over this mass of people, for it is now the third day that they have been with me and they have nothing to eat. I am unwilling to send them away hungry, lest they should faint on the road."
ο δε ιησους προσκαλεσαμενος τους μαθητας αυτου ειπεν σπλαγχνιζομαι επι τον οχλον οτι ηδη ημερας τρεις προσμενουσιν μοι και ουκ εχουσιν τι φαγωσιν και απολυσαι αυτους νηστεις ου θελω μηποτε εκλυθωσιν εν τη οδω
33 "Where can we," asked the disciples, "get bread enough in this remote place to satisfy so vast a multitude?"
και λεγουσιν αυτω οι μαθηται αυτου ποθεν ημιν εν ερημια αρτοι τοσουτοι ωστε χορτασαι οχλον τοσουτον
34 "How many loaves have you?" Jesus asked. "Seven," they said, "and a few small fish."
και λεγει αυτοις ο ιησους ποσους αρτους εχετε οι δε ειπον επτα και ολιγα ιχθυδια
35 So He bade all the people sit down on the ground,
και εκελευσεν τοις οχλοις αναπεσειν επι την γην
36 and He took the seven loaves and the fish, and after giving thanks He broke them up and then distributed them to the disciples, and they to the people.
και λαβων τους επτα αρτους και τους ιχθυας ευχαριστησας εκλασεν και εδωκεν τοις μαθηταις αυτου οι δε μαθηται τω οχλω
37 And they all ate and were satisfied. The broken portions that remained over they took up--seven full hampers.
και εφαγον παντες και εχορτασθησαν και ηραν το περισσευον των κλασματων επτα σπυριδας πληρεις
38 Those who ate were 4,000 adult men, without reckoning women and children.
οι δε εσθιοντες ησαν τετρακισχιλιοι ανδρες χωρις γυναικων και παιδιων
39 He then dismissed the people, went on board the boat, and came into the district of Magadan.
και απολυσας τους οχλους ενεβη εις το πλοιον και ηλθεν εις τα ορια μαγδαλα
